The food industry knows a lot of methods to determine the total antioxidant activity. The potentiometric method includes the mediator system of potassium hexacyanoferrates (K3[Fe(CN)6]/K4[Fe(CN)6]) and has proved to be quite effective in assessing the antioxidant activity of food products. This method is simple and cheap but its interference issues still remain understudied. This research covered 30 potential interfering substances in beverages and their reactivity toward the mediator system of potassium hexacyanoferrates.
The experiment featured carbohydrates (glucose, fructose, sucrose, lactose, maltose), dyes (E102, E110, E124, E129, E132, E133), preservatives (E210, E221, E222, E223, E236, E260), sweeteners (E420, E421, E950, E952, E954), and acidity regulators (E296, E330, E331iii, E334, E337, E338, E363, E386). The potential and pH were determined by the potentiometric method in a mediator system solution in the absence and presence of the abovementioned substances. Cysteine and ascorbic and gallic acids served as controls.
Glucose, sucrose, and maltose did not interfere with the analysis, while fructose and lactose showed an insignificant positive interference of unspecified mechanism. Malic (E296), citric (E330), tartaric (E334), and phosphoric (E338) acids increased the potential of the mediator system by lowering the pH. However, these interference effects were observed only at high concentrations in an electrochemical cell and were leveled after a sixfold dilution. Indigo carmine (E132), sodium sulfite (E221), sodium hydrosulfite (E222), and sodium metabisulfite (E223) were oxidized by potassium ferricyanide and showed significant positive interference. Potassium ferricyanide was capable of oxidizing compounds other than natural antioxidants.
The industrial use of indigo carmine is limited due to its poor light stability, while sulfites are popular components in winemaking. Sulfite interference is of particular concern in the analysis of white wines and is typical of other antioxidant activity methods. The obtained data can correct the results of the potentiometric antioxidant activity tests if the concentration of the interfering substance is known.

Pempek is an authentic traditional dish of Indonesian cuisine. As a popular food, it needs to be both tasty and nutritious. Mashed pumpkin can add some health-beneficial properties to the traditional pempek and reduce its carbohydrate content. This research featured pempek made of farmed toman fish (Channa micropeltes), which is an affordable raw material. The research objective was to evaluate the consumer acceptance of the experimental pempek based on its sensory assessment and a folding test. This research also revealed the proximate composition, β-carotene, and amino acids in the pempek samples.
The research procedure included the following stages: making pumpkin puree; making pempek by substituting tapioca flour with pumpkin puree (control: 0%, Formulation 1: 10%, Formulation 2: 20%); sensory assessment and folding test; proximate analysis; β-carotene analysis; and amino acid analysis.
A greater proportion of pumpkin puree improved the appearance, color, aroma, flavor, and texture values of the experimental sample. Based on the folding test, the elasticity of pempek decreased as the pumpkin share increased. Pumpkin puree improved the quality of pempek in terms of its protein, moisture, ash, carbohydrate, β-carotene, and amino acid composition. Formulation 2 with 20% of tapioca flour substituted with pumpkin puree showed the best results for protein (7.91%) and amino acids (10.27%), as well as the lowest carbohydrate content (26.76%).
Mashed pumpkin proved to be an excellent substitute of tapioca flour in the traditional Indonesian pempek fishcake as it improved both its sensory profile and nutritional value.

Sourdough bakery products have a wide range of tastes and aromas, an extended shelf-life, and other benefits that are important for food producers and consumers. Recent years have seen a growing research interest in the microbiome of bakery sourdoughs. The research objective was to generalize, systematize, and analyze modern data on spontaneous fermentation starters, their production methods, and their role in the technological process at modern bakeries.
The study featured domestic and foreign monographs, research articles, and patents related to various aspects of the production and commercial use of spontaneously fermented baking starters. The search covered publications indexed in PubMed and eLIBRARY.RU in 2000–2022. The sources were selected based on such indicators as completeness, consistency, reliability, and relevance. The obtained data were analyzed and systematized in line with the method of apperception and holography.
The analysis focused on the factors that affect the microbiome of baking starter cultures, in particular, spontaneous fermentation. Another aspect included the effect of the raw materials used at the stage of breeding spontaneous fermentation starter cultures on their quality indicators. The transformation of bioactive compounds in the process of sourdough fermentation proved to be an increasingly relevant research matter. Food producers are looking for more effective tools to develop bakery products with specific nutritional properties, e.g., lower glycemic index, increased content of bioactive nutrients, reduced acrylamide content, low gliadin allergenicity, etc.
The isolation and profiling of microorganisms included in the microbiome of spontaneous fermentation sourdough cultures is of practical interest because new strains might produce starter cultures intended for various target audiences.

Microbial biomass is a promising source of essential macro- and micronutrients to be used in the food industry, e.g., protein, vitamins, essential amino acids, polysaccharide, etc. This article reviews scientific publications on the properties and composition of microbial biomass as a source of functional ingredients, its biological effectiveness, production methods, and composition.
The review covered research articles published in 2005–2021 and indexed in eLIBRARY.RU, Google Scholar, Scopus, Elsevier, and PubMed. It relied on such general scientific methods as analysis, generalization, and systematization.
Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast and Aspergillus mycelial fungi appeared to be the most popular research objects. Most studies concentrated on the chitin-glucan-mannan complex of cell walls and protoplasmic biovaluable protein. Others featured the biocatalytic conversion of microbial polymers with the transfer of biologically valuable components into an enzyme-accessible state. Bioactive ingredients of microbial origin could be divided into sorbents, immunomodulators, neurotransmitters, antioxidants, and anticarcinogenics.
Microbial fermentolysates are a potential source of bioactive compounds for functional foods. However, the medical and biological properties of their minor bioactive components remain understudied while fermentolysates can yield new functional products fortified with essential amino acids and low-molecular bioactive peptides.

Cyanobacterium sp. IPPAS B-1200 is a cyanobacteria strain that belongs to the rare genus Cyanobacterium, family Cyanobacteriaceae fam. nov. Studies devoted to the isolation of secondary metabolites from this strain concentrate mostly on the fatty acid composition while the issue of isolating and identifying exopolysaccharides remains understudied. However, polysaccharides from cyanobacteria are of scientific and economic interest in the framework of biotechnology, medicine, pharmacology, etc. The research objective was to study the effect of the physicochemical conditions of cultivation and the composition of the cultural medium on exopolysaccharide production.
Cyanobacterium sp. B-1200 were grown under 7500 ± 50 lux (12 h light/12 h dark). The dry cell weight was determined by gravimetry and a calibration plot that illustrated the dependence of the biomass amount on the degree of absorption at a wavelength of 750 nm. The amount of polysaccharides in the culture liquid was assessed by the Anthrone-sulphate method. The extraction was carried out by alcohol precipitation. The method of ultrasonic dispersion was used to destroy the cell walls of cyanobacteria.
The experimental study revealed the optimal parameters for the extraction and purification of exopolysaccharides from the culture medium. Removal of sodium bicarbonate from the medium and a 300%-increase in its concentration raised the yield of polysaccharides. The optimal value of active acidity for the synthesis of polysaccharides was pH = 6 while the optimal temperature for their accumulation was 35°C. The largest amount of biomass was obtained at 25°C. Intense white illumination contributed to the greatest release of exopolysaccharides into the culture medium; red-white illumination affected the morphology of cyanobacteria cells. During the extraction, the concentration, temperature, and nature of the extractant proved to be the most important factors. For example, isopropanol produced the highest yield while butanol triggered the least effective response.
The optimal extraction and purification modes for polysaccharides were as follows. For ultrasonic processing, the best results were obtained at a power of 20 W after 5 min. For freeze drying, the rational parameters were 8 h at –15°C.

As a rule, modern confectionery products have added nutritional value, which makes them functional products. As a popular snack, biscuits are a promising object for fortification with functional ingredients. This article introduces a new formulation for biscuits fortified with soy protein.
The research featured crushed soy protein obtained using a patented technology (patent No. 2218816). The experimental biscuits included a mix of wheat flour with 2.5–15.0% soy protein. The control sample was represented by commercial biscuits of the Arktika brand. Physicochemical and other quality indicators were determined by standard methods. The isoflavonoid test involved high performance liquid chromatography with methanol:water eluent.
The experimental biscuits had a higher nutritional value; the absorption indicator fell from 196 to 172%. The crude gluten content dropped from 30.7 to 28.4%. The optimal content of soy protein in the new formulation was below 7.5% of the total mass of wheat flour. A higher mass fraction brought the absorption index below the standard value (˂ 170%) and spoiled the porosity and brittleness. Compared with the control sample, the nutritional value of the experimental sample improved as follows: protein – by 21.6%, fat – by 14.1%, minerals – by 11.1%, isoflavones – by 140.8% (from 4.83 to 11.63 mg/100 g). Total carbohydrates dropped by 6.5%.
The formulation demonstrated good prospects for industrial production. The new biscuits with soy protein can be classified as functional food: compared to the conventional biscuits, the recommended daily intake (100 g) for phosphorus increased from 11.7 to 20.1%, vitamin E – from 12.6 to 18.0%, for isoflavones – from 9.6 to 23.2%.

Probiotic starters are a biological product based on lactic acid bacteria. Their metabolic characteristics determine the properties of the final products. This study evaluated the bacterial composition of a starter culture at various time intervals during the fermentation of a probiotic dairy product.
The starter consisted of Streptococcus salivarius ssp. thermophiles, Lactobacillus delbrueckii ssp. bulgaricus, Bifidobacterium bifidum, Bifidobactreium animalis ssp. lactis, Bifidobacterium longum, Lactobacillus acidophilus, and Lacticaseibacillus casei. Pasteurized milk served as the object of fermentation. The starter culture was activated in sterilized skimmed milk. Sampling occurred throughout the entire fermentation process (0, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, and 18 h). To determine the microbiome of the substrates, the authors used the next-generation high-throughput sequencing that targeted V3 of 16S rRNA gene.
The fermentation resulted in a decrease in Bifidobacterium and an increase in Lactobacillus, which peaked (97.5%) after 15 h of fermentation. Each sampling showed that the count of Streptococcus went down. Eventually, Lactobacillus replaced all other genera, including Bifidobacterium, probably, as a result of pH going down during fermentation. The optimal values for the proliferation of Lactobacillus (pH = 4.2–4.4), which were registered after 18 h, turned out to be too low for the productive growth of Bifidobacterium.
The research demonstrated the changes in the bacterial composition of the dairy base during fermentation. The high-throughput sequencing proved to be an efficient tool in controlling probiotic fermentation processes.

Economic entities involved in food production interact with a large number of counterparties and depend on their integrity. They have to check their potential business partners before cooperating. Contractual due diligence is a service provided by consulting and audit firms that use a variety of tools, e.g., databases and online services, to collect and analyze information. This research considered the main areas of contractual due diligence and assessed the tools involved.
The authors used the common methods of comparison, generalization, and synthesis to describe the main due diligence stages and digital tools.
Information about the counterparty was collected in three areas: legal capacity, financial position, and business reputation. The study focused on the stage of summary, analysis, and profiling. The authors determined the role of digital technologies at each stage, compared their performance, and defined their limitations.
The research revealed the potential of various digital tools for contractual due diligence. The results may help due diligence experts to plan the profiling process.

Hibiscus sabdariffa L., also known as edible roselle, belongs to the Malvaceae family and is native to West Africa. In Nigeria, its dried petals are processed by boiling and filtration into a non-alcoholic beverage called Zobo. Commercial Zobo often includes artificial sweeteners that improve its taste. As a result, local food science needs new formulations with natural and health-beneficial sweeteners. The research objective was to produce a Zobo drink with different blends of date fruit juice as a natural sweetener, as well as evaluate its proximate, physicochemical, and sensory properties.
The control Zobo drink (Zcon) involved an artificial sweetener. The ratios of Zobo to date juice were 90:10 (ZD10), 80:20 (ZD20), 70:30 (ZD30), 60:40 (ZD40), and 50:50 (ZD50). The samples underwent proximate and physicochemical analyses, as well as a sensory assessment on a nine-point hedonic scale.
The physicochemical analysis showed that Sample ZD50 with the 50:50 ratio had the highest pH (3.5) and sugar content (9.5°Bx) while the control sample had the lowest pH (2.5) and sugar content (0.9°Bx), with all samples showing significant (p ≥ 0.05) differences. The proximate analysis also showed a wide range of results (p ≥ 0.05). The control sample demonstrated the highest moisture content (97.0%) whereas Sample ZD50 had the highest ash and lipid content of 0.8 and 4.8%, respectively. Sample ZD50 also had the highest protein (2.23%) and crude fiber content (2.49%). Sample ZD40 with the 60:40 ratio had the highest carbohydrate content. In terms of mouthfeel and taste (p ≥ 0.05), the control sample demonstrated the highest scores while the lowest score belonged to Sample ZD10 with the lowest proportion of date juice. The best results for general acceptance belonged to the control, followed by ZD40 (60:40) and ZD50 (50:50).
Date juice proved to be an effective sweetener that improved the nutritional profile of Zobo. However, the sensory analysis showed that consumers preferred the control sample with the artificial sweetener.

Peas (Pisum sativum L.) are rich in protein, B vitamins, and dietary fiber, represented by hemicellulose and pectins. In terms of amino acids, pea proteins are as close to the reference protein as possible. The limiting amino acids of pea protein are sulfur-containing, i.e., methionine and cysteine. Peas are also rich in lysine, which is the limiting amino acid for wheat flour. Therefore, products of pea processing can expand the range of commercial high-protein foods, including functional bakery products. The research objective was to develop a technology for functional bread from a mix of wholemeal pea flour and wheat gluten.
The study featured baking wheat flour, wheat gluten, wholemeal pea flour of San Cipriano and Vega varieties, dough samples, and ready-made bread. The carbohydrate-amylase complex of flour was studied using an Amilotest AT-97 device. The starch content was determined by the polarimetric method. The spectrophotometric method served to test the flower samples for protein while the Kjeldahl method was applied to the bread samples. The rheological properties of the dough were studied on a Reotest 2 viscometer. The sensory evaluation relied on a panel of experts, and the chemical composition was revealed by calculation and analytically.
The wholemeal pea flour had a lower starch gel viscosity compared to the wheat flour sample. A greater amount of flour added during kneading increased the viscosity of the resulting dough. The acidity was rather high: 7.2 and 9.4 degrees for San Cipriano and Vega samples, respectively, and so was the autolytic activity (≤ 80 s). These useful qualities made it possible to reduce the technological process by 115 and 145 min. The resulting bread demonstrated good physical, chemical, and sensory indicators. The high-protein raw materials increased the protein content in bread by 41.9–46.4%, compared to the control sample, which equaled 33.1–34.2% of the recommended daily intake per 100 g of bread.
The optimal ratio of wholemeal high-protein pea flour and wheat gluten was 20/80 for the San Cipriano samples and 30/70 for the Vega variety.
